SSO-only mode
Web Agent intercepts all inbound client requests to access a protected resource and processes the request based on the Enable SSO Only Mode property.
The configuration setting determines the mode of operation that should be carried out on the intercepted inbound request, as follows:
-
When
true
, the agent manages user authentication only. The filter invokes the AM Authentication Service to verify the identity of the user. If the identity is verified, the user is issued a session token through AM’s session service. -
When
false
, which is the default, the agent also manages user authorization, by using the policy engine in AM.
